[Jack-Devel] synchronization with Jack transport

by Philippe GARCIA-ORTUNO

Hello, I have a problem of synchronization with Jack: for a song at a tempo of 120bpm I drive several synths including a hardware Tempest in slave mode with seq24 disconnected from jack transport and everything is fine. But if I connect seq24 to Jack my Tempest suddenly turns much more slowly, I would say almost half the tempo. Would you have any idea where the problem might come from? thank you in advance for your help, best regards, Philippe

[Jack-Devel] Not able to Switch Audio devices from drop down menu

by ankur sharma

Hi Team, Hope you are doing good! I am facing a problem in using jack in my application. Need your valuable help on this. I am able to loop back the audio through one headphone connected to the PC. I am just looking to switch the headphone for loop back. please guide me how i can perform this task. I am able to connect to the jackd server as client using jack client open API. As per my understanding I need to pass the device name in the command line arguments to jackd server executable which i am running to run the server. but it is always using the default port audio device for audio processing. I am working on windows 10 system. Please let me know if any other information is required from my side. please help. I appreciate your inputs in advance. Thanks. Regards Ankur Sharma 9990304661

[Jack-Devel] Jack Newbie MIDI Questions

by Carlos Eduardo Mello

Hi, I am a complete newbie to jack programming. I am trying to use Jack to send MIDI events to other applications. I am used to Mac OS X programming and the CoreMidi model, so from what I read about Jack, it seem it should be a fairly easy transition. I am still programming in Mac OS, but I am trying to make the code easily portable to Linux, hence my option for Jack. The problem is I can’t find good reasources for learning Jack. The reference to the API is good and they provide example code, but there is not enough explanatory text about how to put the pieces together, or a good tutorial to follow. Most of the stuff I found was about the audio part of jack, not so much about MIDI. So I have many, many questions, like: - I believe I understand the basic procedures for (1) opening a client, (2) registering a port and (3) installing callbacks to deal with data. That part is similar to CoreMDI. But I don’t find any calls that I could make to just send MIDI bytes to the jack server, except from a process callback. The callback model seems natural to me in an input port, when we are waiting for data to come from other parts of the system and we don’ know when they will come. But I want to send MIDI at any arbitraty time that I decide within my application. How do I do that? - It is not completely clear to me how jack deals with time. It seems everything is done in numbers of samples. Is that meant to keep it in synch with the audio? In that case, do I need to convert timestamps to number of samples and constantly keep track of changes in sampling rate? What is the sanctioned way of doing that? (couldn’t find it in the examples). - I tried to compile and run the examples in Xcode with the provided project and source files, but it couldn't even get pass the #includes. I didn’t see in the provided project (the one that came with the Extras folder in the JackOSX instalation) any references to the jack framework. Tried to include it myself, but Xcode would still not see the jack headers. If I try to include the jack header with a full hardcoded path, it finds the first file (‘jack/jack.h’) but fails with other includes. Maybe the project file is outdated. Could anyone help with that? Any help, tip or link would be highly appreciated. Sorry about the long message. Promisse I’ll keep them shorter from now on (If I don’t get kicked out of the list first…) ; - ) Carlos.

[Jack-Devel] Is there a way to force Jack to use 32-bit audio?

by lowkeyoutlaw

Hello! I use Jack to multitrack out of Akai MPC software into my DAW (Cakewalk). My audio interface supports 32-bit audio, and I use 32-bit audio driver bit depth when not using Jack (such as recording vocals into a finished instrumental in Cakewalk) so I know it works well. The problem is, when I do use Jack to connect MPC to Cakewalk, in Cakewalk's settings, the bit audio driver depth is stuck on 24 bit & greyed out so I can't change it. I want to be able to record my MPC beats into Cakewalk at 32 bit. Some say it's overkill but it's impossible to make 32-bit clip & distort & Cakewalk does all its internal work at 32 bit. In 24-bit Cakewalk has to convert the audio to 32 bit first in real-time, which causes a performance hit. My CPU usage is precious because I know I'll fill my projects up with resource-hungry plug-ins. I really want to use 32 bit pretty bad for those and a few other reasons. Is there a way to force Jack to use 32-bit audio? Thanks for your time! -- Sent from: http://jack-audio.10948.n7.nabble.com/Jackit-f3.html

[Jack-Devel] virtual Microphone?

by Andres Santos

Hello everyone, I was wondering if with jack I could create a virtual microphone to use, I have a hosted server which obviously doesnt have sound card, and I would like to stream sound via network to the server and process it using some python packages, for that my script fails because it looks for the sound card, and I would like to setup a virtual microphone to feed my application, is this possible?

[Jack-Devel] FFADO 2.4.2 released

by Jonathan Woithe

The FFADO project is pleased to announce FFADO version 2.4.2. This is a bug fix release which mainly addresses some lingering issues associated with python3. While most of the fixes relate to the build process, one could affect the mixer GUI at runtime. FFADO 2.4.2 is a source-only release which can be downloaded from the project's website at http://ffado.org/, or directly from http://ffado.org/files/libffado-2.4.2.tgz. Thanks to those who contributed towards this version: Jinke Fan, Hector Martin, Orcan Ogetbil, David Runge and Jonathan Woithe.

Re: [Jack-Devel] Don't ever bother with bridging JACK with ALSA or Pulseaudio.

PulseAudio can do something similar in a self-contained fashion, at the expense of higher latency and the occasional dropped sample. And of course the old fashioned way to do it would be with an analog monitor controller or small mixer. The more modern audio production focused way would be to use Dante or similar if you really want network connectivity, or the ability to add and remove devices, have large distance separation, etc. My recollection is that the questions you posed were somewhat isolated, and mostly how to accomplish various specific tasks with jackd or alsa. It may have been better to start with a more general description of what you were trying to accomplish and ask about the best way to get to that result, because I can't imagine anyone recommending that convoluted signal chain just for listening to audio from your desktop and a separate computer (RPi in your case) at the same time. Using an on board audio interface just to send audio over S/PDIF to a USB interface to drive headphones seems pretty bizarre, I never could make sense of what you were trying to accomplish with that rather than just sending audio to the USB interface to start with. -- Chris Caudle

[Jack-Devel] Don't ever bother with bridging JACK with ALSA or Pulseaudio.

by crocket

I've spent months on perfecting the bridge between JACK and ALSA. I've perfected it, but the perfection is still worse than using ALSA alone. Plus, the maintenance cost of the bridge is high in the short term and the long term. Just don't bridge different audio systems. Your life is too precious for that kind of time wasters.

[Jack-Devel] Is JACK suitable for this?

by Mechamania

Hi all, I'm new to this list and would like to ask the people on this list for some advise. I'm searching for a tool to transfer hundreds of audio channels from an existing application to some code of our own. The existing application is SuperCollider and as I understand it supports connections by JACK. But is JACK suitable to connect hundreds of audio channels? We need low latency. Will JACK be low latency? How many times are the samples internally copied? Is it true that all audio will be routed through some network layers? How difficult will it be to add audio input to our own application to receive audio from JACK? I hope you people can help me a little bit further with these questions. Greetings.
